Cardstock Peterbilt Finished

Desert Rat Racer · 21-01-2008

It has taken me about 3 months to build this one but it's finally finsihed, the lenghty time was due to the fact that Lost the wheels and had to print some more of my CDRom that was given to me. The person who so graciously sent it to me will be glad to see me effort, this truck is in 1/24th scale and is the first attempt at such a large scale for me so please excuse any mistakes that pop up in it.

Howdy sell,

Great job there. I had seen this truck before on a website for download, is that the link you was needing? lol If so,. I just wasnt aware of what model ya was building, I could probably find that link again, but glad you found it on your own at the cardmodels site atleast that way it got ya joined up there
Now you are like me, I have dual citizenships......one here at this forum and one at the cardmodel forum
Seeing that you like trucks, I did a redraw of two cardmodel trucks a few years ago, one was a tractor and trailer and the other was a "box" truck similiar to a ryder rental truck in design. i will have to look for them but when i find them i will send you the link to the site that got the originals from.

Have a good day and again, great work ,

Howdy again Russell,

I found the link that i spoke of in the above thread, the one with my repaint "Cardmodels.net" "Box truck". There are several free tractor trailers there for download, they are by no means as complex as the one you built, but they are nice in their own right. You can even scale them to whatever size you want with a photo editing program....thats how i came up with the cardmodels.net truck

Anyway, here are a couple of the free models offered:

And of course my redraw:

There are many more trucks there for download so feel free to take what ya want.

have a good day,

Greg

PS: I reckon i need to do a redraw for this site

Greg I have all those trucks they wher kinda so cute I decided to get them all after some hard think, my truck range is growing. The Peterbilt is of one of the CDRons that was sent to me by some kind cardstock modeller overseas somewhere, the guy was so kind and I thank him form the bottom of my heart. He wants to remain annom as when I received these 2 CDRoms it did even have a name or return address on the packaging, I'm slowly working my way through the CD's.

The quality and standard of these card models never fails to amaze nowadays. I had no idea they were produced in a scale as large as 1/24th.
